Need the whole DVi, TFT stuff to be explained :)

Hi, im just getting a bit confused. Ive never really looked up monitors before nor really had a fancy to know things about them. But i keep seeing all these words and im getting confuzzled.

I know what LCD and CRT are. But whats TFT and whats the difference? And where does DVI fit into things. I know the graphic card i want to get is DVI, does that mean i need a DVI monitor?


Thank you for helping out a wee lil noob


:EDIT:

Just had a brain wave (although may be less of the brain depending on how wrong i am).... does DVI have something to do with duel monitors....
